Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

w WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided
with either a polarized (one wide blade) or grounded (3-prong) plug
to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a
polarized or grounded outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the
plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the
grounding type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type,
3-wire cord. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so
that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
